Interviewing a Project Collaborator

Interview a technical communicator or technical professional in your community who has participated in a collaborative project. Ask this person to describe the collaborative process and to evaluate its strengths and weaknesses. In what ways and to what extent do the technical communicator’s insights confirm the discussion about collaboration in this chapter? Write a 500-word memo to your instructor that briefly summarizes the technical communicator’s main points and analyzes the information you have gathered. (See Chapter 5 for a discussion of interviewing and Chapter 9 for a discussion of memos.)
